Snippet results not shown for initial `(`

The request handler is called, it does return a list of suggestions. However this list isn't used to render the autocomplete list in the view. I suspect ) might be interfering. The below gif demonstrates it. The autocomplete view is :

• shown for console.log.
• not shown when I type in ( which makes the text state: console.log(_cursor_) even though we return a bunch of suggestions (1787 suggestions as shown)
• shown for when you delete the trailing ).

This is related to a previous error report https://github.com/atom-community/autocomplete-plus/issues/220 I need it for : https://github.com/TypeStrong/atom-typescript/issues/23

This is a pretty annoying issue. It would be best if we were able to trigger autocomplete after ANY character (or at least make it configurable). Before 2.7.0, we were at least able to trigger autocomplete manually in that case (ie. ctrl+shift+space), but this doesn't seem to work anymore.

This should have been fixed, and was an issue with bracket matcher. Let me know if this is still an issue.

@joefitzgerald its not fixed. That's the comment you left here : https://github.com/atom-community/autocomplete-plus/issues/220#issuecomment-75623037 And that's why I referenced #220 in the issue description.

I just tested again right now. Still broken: :smile:

I confirm the issue is still present on my side as well (tested with https://github.com/snowkit/atom-haxe)

Any news? I still don't see it.
